Came across this yesterday at a swap meet. I have never seen one in person, but I have seen some in pictures. All I know is that it is a Wards, Monark Silver King, and that it's aluminum.
The guy I bought it from, bought it from the original owner, and he claims that it is all original.
I was a bit hesitant to buy it at fist, but after looking at the prices that people were asking for them online, I thought I better get it at $500, than $1500 on eBay. I don't know if that's eBay's insane pricing, or what. Either way, I like it a lot, so it doesn't matter.
I cannot find a serial number anywhere on it. Does anyone have any advice on how to find the year? Maybe pull the crank?
Anyways, here are some pictures of it when I got it home: (sorry for the poor quality cell phone pictures)
Hope you guys like it!
